CARS_API#

New features:

  • Added the «thailand_plate_recognition_v1» classifier to recognize Thai license plates, including region and plate type;
  • Added a new version of the vehicle detector: the detector architecture has been updated to improve efficiency;
  • Added the new license plate classifier «eu_cis_recognition_v4» to recognize symbols from the CIS and EU countries; this version included support for Georgian transit plates.

Changes:

  • Updated licensing logic: instead of one shared feature tied to CPU core count, used a separate feature for each classifier.

Fixes:

  • Fixed an issue that prevented multiple API instances from starting due to a license lock.

CARS_Stream#

Changes:

  • Improved logging to speed up troubleshooting;
  • Updated licensing logic: instead of a single shared feature, used a separate feature for each detector/estimator. Kept HASP operating on the «CPU core count» feature, and Guardant support for per-detector/per-estimator features.

CARS_Analytics#

New features:

  • Added support for the «vehicle_orientation_v1» classifier to determine vehicle orientation;
  • Added support for the «thailand_plate_recognition_v1» classifier to recognize Thai license plates.

Changes:

  • Renamed analytics parameters in the installer from ANLYS_ to ANALYTICS_ to improve readability and eliminate errors and typos;
  • Added validation of the camera preview format when uploading a file;
  • The description of the /health_check method is now available in Swagger.

Fixes:

  • Fixed a bug that caused parameter thresholds in handlers to fail. Now events are correctly registered when the threshold value is greater than 0.

CARS_Installer#

Changes:

  • Updated the distribution of Streams and API on GPU in the CARS_Installer. Streams and APIs can now run on the CPU or GPU, which improves load balancing flexibility. (For details, see section 3 «LUNA CARS scaling» in the LUNA CARS installation guide.);
  • Added the classifiers «thailand_plate_recognition_v1», «vehicle_orientation_v1» and «eu_cis_recognition_v4» to CARS_API Tester.

General changes#

  • Updated Python to version 3.12 for all LUNA CARS microservices;
  • Fixed bugs.
